Great place

The location was nice and quiet. We hoped to spot a bear who was recently seen but no luck. We enjoyed the wood stove and fire pit. My only suggestion would be to have lighting at the dining room table. It was a lovely surprise to be greeted with fruit and wine!

This was one of the most beautiful properties I have stayed at. It's well integrated into nature and encapsulates the spirit of wild Alaska. The cabin was plenty spacies with two bedrooms, a very well stocked kitchen (utensils and appliances) even for 6 people, a commodious living area and a lovely porch. The house has a huge backyard and easy access to a creek with sweeping views of all the mountains around the cabin. Ian was very thoughtful to leave a lot of extra sheets, towels, cleaning supplies, coffee pods, bear spray, fruits and even a bottle of wine! Ian was also generous to share his personal stock of firewood that allowed us to have a lovely campfire in the yard. We didn't have any issues with a wifi as well. Scott was super communicative and responded promptly and left a of suggestions for a variety of local activities and attractions prior to the trip. Overall we had a fantastic experience staying at the Alska View Lodge and I can't recommend it enough.

Great location

House was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed. We really appreciated the welcoming bottle of wine, fruit bowl and vase of wildflowers. Close to Seward, Exit Glacier, and Chugach National Forest. We enjoyed the creek behind the house and even had a black bear walk through the backyard!

About the host

Hosted by Ian Mudd

I first fell in love with the beauty of Alaska nine years ago and have been hooked ever since. During my time in Alaska I have worked many different jobs (Merchant Marine, Welding, Oil Industry, Carpentry) that have afforded me the opportunity to visit many different places in Alaska. After experiencing all this beauty I still feel Seward is the most beautiful of all! I am originally from Rhode Island and graduated from the International Yacht Restoration School in Newport, Rhode Island. I am a sailor by trade. My hobbies are fishing, exploring Alaska's coastal waters, hiking, woodworking and using my sawmill! I look forward to showing my guests the beauty of Alaska!

Why they chose this property

The views! From this house you get a clear unobstructed view of Mt Alice and the entire Chugach range! Godwin glaciers is also clearly visible, its crystal blue color calms your soul and clears your mind! Also, we have abundant wildlife with moose, bear, otters and rabbits visiting often. The house is also conveniently located about 5 miles to the center of Seward and 3 miles to the small boat harbor. Exit glacier is 7 miles away and most other activities are very close. Stoney Creek zipline is less than a mile from our cabin! We are also really excited about a new business located within one mile that is extremely interesting...Stoney Creek Brewery! .

What makes this property unique

What makes this property unique is all the amenities inside as well as outside! The property is well suited for a family and secluded yet close to town.....you definitely don't have that "hotel" feeling, it gives you a sense of home. Additionally, as a established "local" I can provide you many insights the "average" traveler will never know about! Outside there is a large fire pit area and ample firewood....great for sharing the days stories and some smores! Located on the back of the property is a glacier fed stream that provides excellent views all the way to Resurrection Bay!
